The Issue

The Old School Tearooms is not just a café; it is a beacon of hope and a vital lifeline for the residents of Pentre. This treasured establishment is far more than just a spot to grab a cup of tea – it's a sanctuary where individuals of all ages and backgrounds gather to find support, companionship, and a sense of belonging. By offering transport services, hosting social events, and fostering a warm, welcoming environment, the tearooms play a pivotal role in combating loneliness and isolation in our community.

This beloved hub is a testament to what community spirit can achieve. It supports local businesses by sourcing ingredients from nearby suppliers, thus boosting our local economy. Through food assistance programs and community support services, the tearooms ensure that no one in Pentre is left behind regardless of their circumstances.

However, the very existence of the Old School Tearooms is under threat, and with it, the sense of unity and support it brings to our town. The closure of this unique community hub would be a significant and irreplaceable loss to the people of Pentre and beyond.

We can’t stand by and watch as this vital community resource vanishes. We are calling on local authorities and decision-makers to take urgent action to save the Old School Tearooms. We urge them to explore all possible avenues for support and funding to ensure that this invaluable institution continues to serve and uplift our community.

Join us in safeguarding the heart of Pentre. By signing this petition, you are taking a stand for community strength, friendship, and support. Let us show how much we value the Old School Tearooms and fight for its survival together. Please sign and help us preserve this precious sanctuary for future generations.
